Brake Controller and Install Harness for 2008 Ford F-250 with Factory 7-Way
Question:
Good afternoon, I have recently obtained a 2008 ford f250 with the v8 5.4. It is a base model but has the 7 pin rear plug as well as a flat 4. Can you guide me as to which controll and plug harness i could use and also an idea of where i would find the factory wiring? Thank you

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Prodigy P3 part # 90195 that you referenced is a really great option for your 2008 Ford F-250 with the factory wiring and all it requires to install is the harness # 3034-P. What makes the P3 so great is that it's a very reliable and easy to use proportional brake controller that has an inertia sensor which is what is used to determine how hard you apply the truck brakes and apply the trailer brakes in a similar intensity.
